Insight and Ideas

The Taurus moon kicks off the morning by making a square to Mercury in Leo at 8:17 AM. This lunar aspect is mild but imagine the bull (Taurus moon) charging the matador (Mercury in Leo). Someone might be getting heated and try to make a run at you but if you are paying attention you should be okay!

The moon next opposes Mars in Scorpio which peaks at 11:13 AM and is another butting of heads. Lunar oppositions often indicate the potential for an argument or a run-in of some kind but since the lunar aspects happen so quickly this is a mild influence at most, so I do not expect anything major to be happening. After this aspect perfects the moon is void-of-course for a couple of hours. They say it is best to finish up tasks previously started or to work on routine tasks under a void-of-course moon.

We move into Gemini with the lovely moon making her entrance at 2:17 PM. The thing about lunar Gemini is that she can get bored quite easily so there needs to be something of interest nearby to catch her attention. When the moon is in this sign it is better to multi-task than to try to focus on only one thing. Gemini does better moving around and changing things up. So short tasks are best. For example making several phone calls would be a great thing to do under the Gemini moon, but doing your taxes … not so much.

The recommended stone for today is alabaster which helps us feel more secure in our “seeking”. Gemini is a sign of seeking, always asking questions in order to figure out how the world works.

The essential oil to try today is chamomile Roman which helps build stability and also has a calming influence.
